This website is what happens when a semi-retired winery owner, winemaker, musician, writer and wine lover becomes obsessed with the Finger Lakes and its wines and wineries. Come along as I make my way through over 100 Finger Lakes wineries and hundreds of Finger Lakes wine tastings. We invite all of you Weekend Winos out there to tag along for News, Reviews, Songs and Discussion about the Finger Lakes. We hope you enjoy the ramblings and we welcome all comments.

My Wine Wins Another Medal

- As I posted in my May 20th post, myself and 2 friends entered our Concord wine into the Winemaker Magazine Amateur Winemaking Competition last month and we won a medal. Well, we just found out last weekend that we won another medal at the prestigious Indy International Competition! So we must be doing something right.

-Come out and see Mr. Tom and me, the Finger Lakes Weekend Winos Duo, perform acoustic blues, rock, and originals this Saturday & Sunday from Noon to 4pm at Dr. Franks on the east side of Keuka Lake. We had a great time there earlier in the month and this weekend should be even better!

- Also, My June Wine & Dine Column for Mountain Home magazine about winemaker Barry Tortolon of Rooster Hill Vineyard is now online.
